Doesn't TX on CB, but RX's it. This Radtel doesn't TX on 222MHz. Tell ya what, for around a C-Note, this HT is very tempting. In 2006, my TH-F6A was around $400.00, and I thought that reasonable, for what it does. (I still do, and still have one.) Anyway, this Radtel sounds like it would be good for a Go-Bag. 
“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
-Attributed to Albert Einstein, but I ripped it from the latest Splatter .PDF March 2025 issue.
